There is also a serious bug in 'mbd_mpc_path.m', it overwrites your entire MATLAB path.
The matlab function 'path' is invoked incorrectly:
if nargin == 1 && strcmpi(varargin{1}, 'append')
path([newpth pathsep rppth]);
disp('MBD Toolbox path appended.');
else
path([rppth pathsep newpth]);
disp('MBD Toolbox path prepended.');
end
From the Matlab documentation: the existing path is never added.
path(P1,P2) changes the path to the concatenation of the two search
paths P1 and P2. Thus path(path,P) appends the folder P to the
current path and path(P,path) prepends the folder P. If P is already
on the path, then path(path,P) moves P to the end of the path,
and similarly, path(P,path) moves P to the beginning of the path.
The way it is currently setup it wipes out the original Matlab path, Matlab can't find anything, even help and eventually crashes.
Fix:
1. addpath([rppth pathsep newpth])
2. path(path, [rppth pathsep newpth]);
